Lyrics:

Mingus
par cœur, j'le connais par cœur
Hé fils le nommé Davis
aussi j'le connais aussi
et

J'aime tous les succès de Duke Ellington
tous les standards
Caravan
Tony Bennett

This version did not chart but
It charted twice in 1937: Duke Ellington (# 4) and Barney Bigard (# 20)
In 1949 Billy Eckstine
Chopin
S' donnait pourtant un mal de chien de chien de chien
On est pas là pour rigoler
La bande à jazz a débarqué
Jazz band bande à Duke Ellington ton ton
It Don't Mean a Thing

Performer:The Rooftop Singers
Composer :Irving Mills / Duke Ellington
Lyricist :Irving Mills / Duke Ellington

It don't mean
not a damn thing
What's Duke Ellington without that swing?
What's Alex Haley if it doesn't have roots?
What's a weekend if you ain't knocking boots?
eternity

King Elmore was born
So was Duke Ellington
Jelly Roll made love
Bessie Smith was created in heaven above

Robert Johnson sang the blues
Duke Ellington
 Don't you know I care
 Or don't you care to know?
 If you know I care,
 How can you hurt me so.
 Darling, you are part of every
from present to past

Hey, what about some of those great legends of jazz?
Yeah, like Jazz Royalty
Oh, you mean Duke Ellington and Count Bassie
What
Hookahs don't really do shit, Duke Ellington in this bitch
Rebelling is like an itch, ooh

I'ma live, I'ma live forever

Yeah, diamonds shaped like
Led an enormous band

Oh, But I know he's very lucky too
Because when Mingus dies there's gonna be the same funeral they had for Duke Ellington
The Harlem Renaissance
Hear Duke Ellington and his band
Kick another jungle jam
Ooh, do you wanna dance?
Who's that lurking in the shadows?
Mr. John

LetsSingIt - Your favorite Music Community
Irving mills, duke ellington

What good is melody, what good is music
If it ain't possessin' something sweet
It ain't the melody, it ain't the music
Sundays was better than other days
Mondays through Saturdays
Sundays we danced like there's no tomorrow
Duke (Ellington) played piano in Storyville
strings he played smokin' his Kool
Duke Ellington hat, picture this yo, seventies cat
He wrote his music in the back of the crib, I did my homework
possess melanin
Hotter than tales of crack peddlin', making 'em woop
Like blue gelatin, swing like Duke Ellington
Broader than Barrington Levy, believe
I've been telling them
Most the time I'm lurkin in
New Orleans like a pelican
Walking in the party dapper
Looking like Duke Ellington
Yeah always wear
Thank you! Thank you very much. And now we'd like to feature Johnny Griffin on this next composition, it's an old Duke Ellington tune, Sophisticated
of Duke Ellington
Do I owe each kiss to lip and cheek as soft
As Chet can sing "Let's Get Lost"
And "Let The Good Times Roll"
Let "Smoke Rings" from
Fuqua, Damien Marley
Trevor McDonald, The Black Stars
Angie Stone, Count Basie
Duke Ellington, Jackie Robinson

Bill Clinton, that's right I said it
From brick walls and bridges 
We were rolling over ridges 
Through valleys 
Under stars 
I dream of touring like Duke Ellington 
In my own railroad
listen for the sirens
'Til then we pray

Skeletons
Marching army
Guns
Drop your feet
I'm scared
I'm Duke Ellington
My mother said there'd be days
nus
Que j'adorais dans ma chambre
Quand, le corps brûlant
Et la tête dans les étoiles
J'dansais sur la voie royale
De Duke Ellington

Mille neuf
[Originally by Duke Ellington]

In my solitude you haunt me
With reveries of days gone by
In my solitude you taunt me
With memories that never die

I
